Personal Statement

Carey and Sophie

I am a compassionate trial lawyer. My job is to help people who are in pain and to help people who are being taken advantage of by the insurance companies. You didn’t ask to be hurt. It is overwhelming when you are in pain and do not know where to turn to for good legal advice and help. Injured Vermonters need someone to take some "weight off their shoulders" so they can focus on healing and getting back to the life they love. I am here to help you.

I love my job as a Vermont trial lawyer because I am able to use my compassionate side to take care of my clients and my competitive side to fight for my clients' rights and the settlements they deserve. I love helping people who need my expertise in personal injury law to protect and fight for their rights. I promise to work diligently for each and every client straight through to their full and fair settlement.
